What Are The Latest Trends In Sports Trophies?
As the world of sports continues to evolve, so do the trends in sports
trophies. Whatever sport you play, we stock a range of exciting trophy designs perfect for the big celebrations and small successes.
Sport Specific Trophies
Sport-specific trophies are a classic trend and they’re popular because they’re completely customised to the sport and are designed to represent the essence of the game. Suggestions include:
- AFL: Feature an AFL ball, boot or goalposts to personalise your trophy.
- Netball: Consider incorporating a ball, net or figurine to help your trophy stand out.
- Rugby: Embody your team spirit by featuring a mascot or rugby ball on your trophy.
- Dance: Abstract dance figurines, shining stars and genre specific accessories (like ballet shoes) make for a truly unique trophy.
- Swimming: Incorporate water-inspired elements or swimmers to customise the design.
- Tennis: From rackets to tennis balls, there are plenty of ways to personalise your tennis trophies.
- Cricket: Consider incorporating a ball holder, bat or wicket into your design.
Colourful Fun Trophies
Another popular trend is the use of colourful, fun trophies. These are designed to be playful and engaging, often featuring bright colours, whimsical designs or cartoon characters. They’re particularly popular for children’s sports events, where they can serve as a fun reminder of the experience and encourage children to stay active and engaged in sports. Check out our
novelty trophies for inspiration.
Lifelike Bust Sculptures
For a more sophisticated and elegant approach, these trophies are typically made of bronze or other materials and are designed to look like a bust of the athlete or coach. They’re perfect for commemorating achievements or for honouring coaches who have made significant contributions to their sport.
Modern Artistic Trophies
Modern artistic trophies are another great option, designed to achieve a contemporary and artistic look, featuring abstract shapes and designs. They’re perfect for recognising achievements in creative sports like dance or for events that require a more modern aesthetic. A few modern designs we offer include Gold Flame trophies, Tinted Acrylic Awards and our Beautiful Dancer range.
Tower Trophies
Tower trophies are trending for their unique design and versatility. These trophies feature a tall, narrow design, perfect for displaying multiple plaques or plates, making them ideal for recognising a team’s achievements over multiple years.
Spartan Trophies
Spartan trophies are also a trend to consider. These feature a minimalist design with clean lines and sharp angles, perfect for recognising achievements in sports that require strength and endurance, such as running or weightlifting.
Classic Cups
Classic cups are a traditional type of trophy featuring a classic design, often with a silver or gold finish. A key benefit of these is their versatility; they can be customised to suit a wide range of sporting achievements and are typically engraved with the recipient’s name and the details of their accomplishment. In addition to their visual appeal and versatility, classic cups also have a rich history and tradition behind them, having been used for centuries to acknowledge excellence and achievement. Take a look at our Flash Series, Spectrum Cups and Wrap Cups.
Why Use Trophies?
Ultimately, the purpose of a trophy is to recognise and celebrate achievement.
Trophies serve as a tangible reminder of the hard work and dedication that athletes and coaches put into their sport and they can serve as a motivator for future achievements. Whether you’re recognising the efforts of a child on a recreational team or celebrating the accomplishments or milestones of a professional athlete, trophies are an excellent way to acknowledge hard work and dedication at all levels of the sporting industry.
